My husband and I recently stayed with Marilyn and Martin for two nights on our honeymoon. It was an unplanned stay as the accommodation we had booked in Knysna turned out to be less than we had hoped for. Despite our last minute arrival (on a very wet evening!) Marilyn welcomed us sincerely and the warmth at Villa Paradisa swept... More

We stayed here as part of our mini honeymoon. It was a beautiful place to stay and Marilyn was very helpful giving us advice about trips etc. Room was lovely and we loved the balcony where we could drink wine and look at the gorgeous views of Knysna. Only downsides- I really didn't like the breakfast on the second day-... More

It is a lovely boutique property with rooms and surrounding done up very nicely and you get best views of the Knysna heads right from your room.

We stayed at Villa Paradisa for two days during our honeymoon...and it was amazing. On our arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the owners, Marilyn and Martin. Marilyn helped us settle in and we immediately felt at home. This was going to be our piece of paradise for the next two days. We didn't event want to leave the guest... More

Villa Paradisa is not a letter short of what we experienced during our stay. Absolute stunning views, combined with unsurpassed service and very friendly hosts, Marilyn & Martin. We were totally blown away from the minute we arrived.. We were welcomed with champagne and a introduction to the stunning room we booked - The Honeymoon Suite. Immediate relaxation best describes...

1st time we have stayed in a guest house and Martin and Marilyn have set a challenge to other guest house owners! We only had 3 days in Knysna and wanted to make the most of our time, Marilyn organised a Tuk Tuk for a morning drive around Knysna which was so informative could really recommend that to anyone who...

I would highly recommend to anyone visiting this area to stay at this luxurious "bed and breakfast". Martin & Marilyn, the owners certainly know how to treat their guests. They went far beyond the realms of B & B owners. The rooms, of which there are three, were simply outstanding and luxurious. The breakfast was to die for, Martin's poached... More
